The first time he sees her, Jack doesn’t think much of her. Yes, she’s beautiful with her long black hair and her shining eyes, beautiful in that white summer dress and the black converse that don’t seem to match the dress at all. But she’s not much more beautiful than other girls either; there are more than enough girls on campus he would judge the same kind of beautiful, just with better taste in fashion.  
Still, he can’t shake the feeling that there’s something about her standing in front of the tree in the middle of the yard, eyes so full of wonder at something as simple as a few crumpled, brown leaves. It’s nearly winter and they’ve clung to it for forever. Jack thinks they should just give up and fall off already, that there’s no use holding on to anything in life, ever.  
Something is lingering in his throat, or his mind – he can’t tell.  
He knows her, doesn’t he? Surely, he must have seen her before, on campus. That’s probably it. This is only the second week of university, but there’s no way he would know her otherwise. There was no one like her in his hometown, no one in the orphanage either. No one at school with the same amount of stupidity. Really, why is she only wearing a white dress at the end of November? Isn’t she cold? At least she’s wearing shoes. Her arms and legs are pale.  
_Lacie_.  
His mouth drops open slowly, in wonder at himself, in wonder at where this name suddenly came from. Why would he know a stranger’s name, anyways? No, he must be dreaming, or he must be going mad for good. Not like his therapist hasn’t already told him that.  
_Lacie, Lacie, Lacie._  
*  
The girl with the white dress and the black converse whose name seems to be Lacie doesn’t leave his mind for the entire week.  
*  
Something about the weird blonde guy interests her. Lacie can’t exactly tell why, but the way he’s slumping around, falling into his seat as if he’s never had _any_ positive experience in his life is funny. Or maybe it’s his meme pullovers that make her think he’s funny. The “You know I had to do it to ‘em” pullover probably was something he wouldn’t be able to beat, ever. Today, he’s wearing a dark green pullover with a shocked Pikachu face on it. Lacie hasn’t actually caught his name, so she decided on simply referring to him as “Memelord” for now.  
She doesn’t really have a reason to not sit next to him, either. Most of the room is filled with eager psychology students, ready to learn about statistics. Lacie is pretty much convinced she will find that insufferable, no matter how good she was at mathematics her entire life. Being good at something doesn’t immediately make it fun.  
In a straight line, she walks over to him and sits down in the seat next to him, evoking not even a single reaction.  
Rude.  
She would have loved to think the societal norm of greeting someone would also apply to Sir Memelord, but apparently it doesn’t.  
“Do you mind me sitting here?”, she brings herself to ask in the end. She can still decide to sit next to someone else if he actively decides to be rude to her.  
Just as slow as all of his motions are, his blonde head turns around. It’s so slow his braid barely even moves along. She bites down a remark about that, thinking that hell, this guy _really_ must be depressed.  
“Huh?”  
In the next second, his eyes go wide, round, from dull to perfectly lit up in the shortest span of time Lacie has ever seen that happening in. Part of her thinks they’re beautiful, with their emerald green being emphasized by the slightly darker pullover. The other part thinks that they’re ugly because of the heavy eyebags just below and the missing spark of them.  
Ugly, yet so terribly beautiful.  
“No, I don’t mind, Lacie”, he answers.  
Her heart skips a beat. She knows that yes, they’re in many lectures together, but it hasn’t ever seemed as if he’d actively paid attention to her. If anything, he seemed to be shocked at her even being here. Yes, the professors have said her name before for attendance, but she also doesn’t remember his name despite being weirdly interested in him.  
“Are you a stalker or something like that?”, she asks, cocking an eyebrow.  
For a few seconds, they’re both silent, just staring at each other. Sir Memelord blinks, then shakes his head.  
“I must’ve remembered it from attendance or something like that. Even though I haven’t really seen you in my lectures.”  
Lacie nods, still feeling weird, to say the least. Why does the guy know her name? She has no idea whether she should feel honoured or seriously creeped out by the guy.  
“Yeah”, she simply answers, tearing her gaze away from his eyes for now. They don’t seem honest. He seems empty, like a shell that has been left by its soul years ago. Twisted, sick, ill, fucked up.  
“What’s your name?”, she does ask after a while. No matter what kind of first impression someone leaves on her, she doesn’t just give in, never has. Maybe she can have some fun with him after all.  
“Jack. Just Jack.”  
_Jack._  
Something about this feels… familiar. It makes her feel warm inside, as if she was thinking of a memory from long ago. Something like a childhood memory that’s buried so deep, hidden below layers and layers of her own skin and flesh and bones. Jack. Jack. Jack, blonde hair, emerald green eyes, someone saying such a simple name-  
“Really? What a dull name!”  
It’s short and boring and literally every fuckboy in the world is called “Jack”. Lacie judges him to indeed _not_ be a fuckboy after all, not with him being so depressed she thinks he hasn’t smiled in his whole life.  
There’s no way he would get a girl with that attitude anyways. Or a boy. Not that this matters much to her.  
He goes quiet again, never responds. For the entire time, she tries to spark up conversations; asks him about his pullover, or why he’s studying psychology (especially when he seems like he needs a therapist himself), what his favourite colour is. The only thing he answers is “I like memes”, “I don’t know”, and “green”.  
Lacie gives up on him for now.  
Nevertheless, something about this name of his has struck a chord inside her that made her heart flutter. That brought back the warmth of childhood memories, like drinking hot cocoa together with her brother after long walks in the snow in the middle of January. Like picking a sunflower and holding it up to show it to Lottie in the orphanage she has lived in for her entire childhood. Being praised by Levi for being good at math in second grade.  
His name.  
Jack.  
*  
The name doesn’t leave her mind, ever.  
*  
Jack absolutely has no idea how they became friends in the end. Maybe he can’t exactly call themselves friends, but them being out in the city together surely means there’s some kind of connection, right? One month has passed ever since that weird incident in the lecture and Lacie had apparently decided to stick around, for whatever reason.  
Personally, Jack finds himself quite boring. There’s nothing special to him. He studies psychology for God knows what reason, his only real hobby is making cat memes on the internet (his tumblr is quite popular) and he has a weird obsession with pocket watches. He’s even been to workshops to learn how they work yet didn’t decide to do this as a main job. It’s not like he wants to become a therapist either. Helping others when he can’t even help himself just seems majorly hypocritical to him.  
Maybe it’s because he likes analyzing people, because he’s lived on the sidelines for too long? Because that’s everything that was left after his parents died?  
Lacie still wouldn’t wear a coat so now she’s wearing Jack’s brown parka which nearly reaches her knees.  
“Lacie?”  
She looks up at the questioning tone in his voice, something she probably isn’t used to from him. Jack isn’t someone to properly get interested in others, unlike her. He knows how humans work and has adapted to their ways of living, but he isn’t sure if he’s what he’d call _human_ of all things.  
Not when he’s going mad like this with her around.  
“Hm?”  
“Why do you only ever wear a dress? You’re cold, so…”  
It’s December and there’s snow falling. White flocks hitting the ground with the softest sigh possible, dyeing the whole world a beautiful white. Almost like-  
Like what?  
Sometimes, Jack feels as if there are memories that want to break through the surface of the water that seems to be his mind, an ocean so deep he isn’t sure that’s even possible.  
_Every time it snowed…_  
What? What was it every time it snowed? He must be going mad and he should definitely tell his therapist about this. Maybe he has to change medication, not that that’s helping much anyways. Surely having something like hallucinations isn’t what society would call normal, right? Yes, there’s been cases of people having memories from former lives written in the abyss, but that was only when they were important persons or went through a lot.  
Him just being a depressed teenager age nineteen does not count into any of these categories.  
“My brother told me to wear coats, so I’ve decided to simply not do it.”  
What happens next shocks both. Something leaves Jack’s mouth that he couldn’t ever have imagined, a sound that is clear and light and so full of… joy? It’s weird, scratchy in his throat until it’s over.  
He’s laughed.  
Jack doesn’t laugh often, not as honestly as that. When he does, it’s just to please other people in order to get stuff over with and not be attacked in public for being rude.  
“You’re getting interested in me, Jack.”  
The way she pronounces his name makes that other feeling bubble up again, the feeling that leaves the tips of his fingers tingly, the feeling that makes his stomach drop and his cheeks just a little warmer than usual.  
Jack isn’t someone to feel a lot. His therapist says it’s probably having scored all points on the official depression test (how is he even still here?) but he feels as if there’s more to this. As if there’s something in his past, in this deep, black ocean of his that has yet to reach the surface and tell him what all of this is about. He’s not sure if he wants that, being relatively convinced he’d break even more.  
But Lacie does something to him, her smile and those red eyes make his heart flutter and his throat feel a bit dry. And she’s made him laugh. Honestly.  
He also knows she’s right, but just ends up shrugging. There’s no need to tell her that she is right. By now, Jack knows her well enough to judge that she would laugh at him, tease him even.  
“Oh, look, a toy shop!”, she suddenly exclaims, and Jack has never been happier about a damned toy shop before. Not that he is much into toys, not at all. The only objects he can somehow get excited for are books and pocket watches, and even for books it still greatly depends on the content.  
“Can we go look there, please?”  
Again, he just shrugs, hoping that Lacie gets the message. She does, immediately interpreting a ‘yes’ into the simple twitching of his shoulders. He adjusts his woolly hat, hoping that his braid won’t get wet enough to get wavy. It’ll be hell combing through that in the evening.  
Lacie practically runs to the shop, but when she is right in front of it, looking into the window, she stops dead in the track. Jack catches up to her, wanting to see what shocked her so much. Wanting to know what made her react that way, _wanting to know more about her_.  
He nearly smiles again at that thought. Getting attached to someone else, him of all people? And Lacie obviously not hating him? That’s weird enough.  
“What are you- “  
He sees what it is. What she is getting so upset about, her eyes glittering as if she was about to cry.  
It’s a simple black plush rabbit, sitting, cloth not the fluffy kind but rather hard, two black buttons as its eyes.  
Another name appears in his head.  
_Oz._  
And all of a sudden, memories come back, exploding like a volcano after having waited for years to spit out the lava, to get rid of it. To drown and burn everything around it.  
There are images of Lacie dancing with blood coming down as rain, she looks so terribly beautiful he can only think about how much he loves her. Her mouth is wide open and she’s singing, she’s having fun despite all those red drops landing on her face and her white dress. She looks like a fallen angel, except that the wings are missing.  
Then there’s her and him below a starry sky, looking up at the golden lights that she is soon going to look down upon. She’s holding his arm and she smells weird, of the streets and the snow and the food she’s stolen for them.  
There’s her meeting him on the streets, deciding that he’s interesting enough for her to stay around with for a few days until her brother apologizes to her.  
There’s her pretending to not know him in front of her entire family to not be seen as weird and because she doesn’t want to admit that she does remember him. Because she probably felt the same, didn’t she? Jack doesn’t know, god, he’s never known.  
There’s her not being there at all.  
There’s days, weeks, months spent in his blanket with only someone visiting him who’s covered in bandages.  
There’s him declaring that he’s going to get her back.  
There’s a black rabbit that kills for him, kills and kills everyone he loves and screams so horribly loudly that his ears must be bursting, that he must be losing his mind completely now.  
He swallows down the gag in his throat when he realizes that she’s gone for good and nothing he does will ever bring her back and yet-  
When he turns around, she’s right there. She’s wearing a white dress and black converse in December with his parka and an aghast look on her face.  
As if she’s seen the same.  
She’s here.  
Lacie Baskerville is existing right next to him.  
He gulps, sees her face harden for a second, then she shakes it.  
“God, I thought I just saw something, but it’s alright. You’re pale, Jack. Are you worried about me?”  
Lying has always been what he’s best at, so he nods, goes along with the story she’s made up, because even her teasing him is so much better than her learning the truth.  
“Pfft. I don’t see why my brother doesn’t like you!”  
“He doesn’t?”, Jack chokes out, putting on the most stable grin he can manage, which most certainly isn’t much.  
“No, he says you’re really suspicious because you’re so bad at statistics.”  
This time, Jack doesn’t laugh.  
*  
They both remember.  
*  
“Jack.”  
Her tone of voice is cold, so bitterly cold that it hurts his very soul, crashes right through his heart and shatters it. Jack still doesn’t know what to make of everything that has happened, even though he remembers everything as if it was yesterday. The despair at her being gone, the tragedy, Oz, everything that happened after, stabbing a child, not feeling any regret at all.  
He still isn’t sure if he feels regret or if this is just how it’s going to be now; living with those memories until they eat him away and he loses Lacie for a fourth time.  
At first, she disappeared. Then she died. Then he realized he can’t have her.  
And this cycle might repeat itself and he couldn’t do anything, because death is part of life just as much as everything else.  
Does he feel regret?  
The question has been eating him away and it must be showing. He has slept even less than usual, barely able to calm down anymore. He should regret it, should regret hurting all those people for years to go, but he knows what he did it for too. He did it for her, Lacie, the girl that’s sitting in front of him, at a table in the empty university cafeteria. Jack doesn’t even know why it’s open at this time, it’s nearly eight in the evening and the only person apart from that is a woman cleaning the kitchen and the storage in the very back.  
“Yeah, Lacie?”  
He doesn’t manage to put on his grin and it scares him, scares him so much because that means she’s gripping him once again, with those fine hands of hers, fingers so slender they would fit perfectly into his. She make him feel things yet again, feelings that he hasn’t had before and never wanted before, either.  
But there’s no need to grin, anyways. He knows what this is about, sees it in her eyes, clear as day. The anger, the disappointment, the other feeling that is undoubtedly.  
Love.  
He’s not given time to think about it.  
“I remember what happened and I know you do, too.”  
“Lacie, listen- “, he starts, but she interrupts him by raising her hand.  
“No. I don’t want explanations. I don’t care what you fucking did this for. You hurt all these people.”  
“I didn’t know I was hurting them!”, he says, partly in self-defense, partly because he knows that it’s true. How would he have known what hurts others if he didn’t even know what hurt _himself_ , back then? Now, he most certainly _does_ know. It’s talking like this, her gaze so conflicted and her voice choking on her own words. Tongue not being able to form them.  
“You hurt all these people, Jack!”  
The Lacie who claims to find positive things even in the ugliest of all, starts to cry. And that is something Jack, in his twisted mind, deems as one of those positive things. She’s beautiful with tears in her eyes and drops rolling down her cheeks, she’s gorgeous with sobs escaping her throat, rattling throughout her entire body. She’s still wearing his pullover that he’s given her during lunch, even though it’s stupidly warm for January. There hasn’t been any snow in quite a while.  
Nothing to remind him of their first meeting and the time he hated her and now the time he’s gone back to loving her so much he can’t stand seeing her like this.  
“You hurt Oz! You hurt him even though I just wanted him to bring you my message, my song, in the hope that your stupid ass of a man can figure out what I mean by it! But no, you didn’t! Everything I did with that was destroy lives and lives and lives and it’s my fault for not knowing who you really are!”  
Jack wants to scream back at her, wants to tell her that he didn’t know who he was either. That he most clearly still doesn’t know and won’t ever if it continues to be this way. But he’s rendered speechless by her hitting her own chest once, twice, her hand formed into a tight fist. Why does she feel the need to do this? Isn’t it enough for him to blame himself?  
He wants to tell her that he does think he regrets it. Not all of it, sure, but some. Would that make her feel better about herself? Or is it long past the point of any of his words helping? When she just continues sobbing, doesn’t go on talking, he decides he might as well speak up.  
His heart is beating fast and his throat is so terribly dry he has to swallow several times before even opening his mouth. When he speaks up, his voice is scratchy and desperate for her to believe him.  
“Lacie, I just wanted you back.”  
This isn’t what he was planning to say at all. It’s just as it’s been with the will of the Abyss, whom he had told all his true intentions.  
But isn’t this what everyone says fixes people? Being honest to oneself and to others, too?  
“Lacie, I really just wanted you back. I didn’t know how to live without you. I didn’t know what to do. And I didn’t care about hurting all those people as long as I got you back in the end.”  
“You didn’t.”  
Her saying that he didn’t get her back when he needed her most hurts. This is pain. He wasn’t ever in pain at her being gone, was he? He was in pain at him long being gone and Lacie making him realize just that.  
And he’s still gone. Still unsure of who he really is.  
But doesn’t he have time to figure this out now, in this life, with her by his side? No, she won’t stay. By her hard glare, this is more than obvious. He’s going to lose her once again.  
“No, I didn’t get you back, no matter what I did.”  
He’s going to lose her in the worst way possible this time because she will be leaving voluntarily, out of her own accord.  
“If only I hadn’t decided to talk to you on this fucking street back then.”  
With this said, she gets up, her pullover still falling over her chest and hips almost like a dress and storms out of the building. He thinks he can see her wiping away her tears when she walks past him, outside, on the other side of the window.  
Gone.  
Yet again.  
*  
They both don’t forget each other.  
*  
“Jack, what are you here for?”  
Figuring out her address was harder than expected because they had never actively been at each other’s places. It’s a student flat like his own, about a thirty minutes walk from him. He had to ask multiple people if they knew where she lived, and in the end, he had eventually found a friend of hers that had visited her for a psychology project before.  
Upon opening the door, she is wearing his pullover, just like many other times they’ve seen each other in class, sitting at opposite ends.  
“Lacie- “  
“Jack, just answer as shortly as you can. I’m not sure I really want to see you more than necessary, ever again.”  
“I want to talk.”  
“Haven’t you done enough talking in the past? How would I know that you’re not lying?”  
Then happens something that’s even worse than Lacie crying, at least in his opinion.  
_He_ is the one to start crying. It feels awful because he hasn’t ever done that much, but there are undoubtedly tears streaming down his face with no stop at all. They’re salty when some run past his lips and he angrily rubs them away, but it doesn’t do anything.  
His emotions themselves get too much and back then, he probably would have shoved them back down.  
He can’t do that now.  
“Because you _know_ me better than anyone else ever did! You know me better than I ever knew myself, Lacie! I can’t live without you, ok? I can’t live without you when I finally have you back after all those stupid years! I don’t even know why we’re alive when we both should be in the abyss for forever, I don’t know, but don’t you think this must mean something? That we’re both here, together, after another century! I waited two hundred years for this, don’t push me away, please do everything but don’t push me away!”  
Lacie staggers back into her flat, clearly taken aback by everything he has just said. Hell, Jack himself is surprised that he was able to form actual sentences about his own feelings. And while he still hates emotions because all they do is hurt him, he can’t help but think that this is what freedom must be.  
Being able to live, after all this time, no matter how painful it may be.  
“…Come in. My brother isn’t here right now.”  
He can’t stop crying, even as he walks into the tiny flat, legs trembling below his weight. He hasn’t decided for everything to be this way. He hasn’t decided for his mother to take away his sense of self by constantly comparing him to everyone else around him, he isn’t responsible for landing on the streets with no one looking after him.  
In the end, he didn’t even care enough about himself to want to die.  
It’s small, really. There are some pictures of the siblings there, hung up on the wall. Apart from Lacie and her brother, there are other children, too. One kid with pink hair, then a man with long white hair in braids. Jack recognizes both of them, lowers his gaze. He doesn’t want to think about Lottie and most definitely not about Levi of all people. If Levi hadn’t told him about the chains, he wouldn’t have tried to destroy them in the first place-  
No. There’s absolutely no need to do this again. It was his choice. Yes, Levi gave him the knowledge, but it was his choice nonetheless.  
Lacie leads him into the kitchen, soft yellow walls lighting up the room, then gestures at one of the three chairs. He sits down on it, his lips still trembling from all the crying.  
“Fine. Ok, I know, I shouldn’t have said this back then. I shouldn’t have said that I wished I hadn’t talked to you. That isn’t true at all, I know that now. I’m sorry.”  
Her apology is honest, but to Jack, it’s set off by him crying. He hates all of this, showing his feelings when he didn’t know he had them in first place.  
“No. You were right to say that”, he says, meeting her gaze. It sets something inside of him on fire once again, because this is Lacie and she’s alive and he should be glad about this. No matter what the outcome of this conversation is. Maybe she will find someone else.  
“No, I wasn’t. I can’t exactly judge you. Listen… I always used to be fine with my death. Honestly, I didn’t care much. If anything, I was worried about Oswald. All those years, I know he would be sad about me. And that he doesn’t want to kill me.”  
Jack knows which incident she means; when Oswald went back into the past, trying to kill his sister with his own two hands. Obviously, he hadn’t been able to do that. Not because of himself, and not because of Oz and the rest.  
“It changed when I met you. Or well, when you came back to me after seven years. I hated you for that. I hated that you taught me sadness about leaving this ridiculous world.”  
That, Jack had absolutely not been expecting. He had always thought that if anything, Lacie would have wanted to stay for Oswald, but she had respected his decision of pushing her into the abyss, decided that she would accept her role in this world. Even if it meant dying, leaving nothing but a fragment in the form of a plush rabbit behind.  
“But- “  
“It was because of you”, she repeats, “I absolutely started to hate the thought of dying because I got attached to you and it’s never happened before and it’s now happened again. And I don’t like it, because nowadays you like cat memes and you’re more depressed than my brother.”  
She holds his gaze, keeps watching him fall apart and shatter.  
Yes, Jack has cried before, but he never knew why. Now, he does know. He’s sad about having lost Lacie and about her pushing him away, but he’s glad about her apparently trying to reconcile. At least a little. Maybe they can at least part in a good way, without hating each other for much longer.  
“I hated you, Jack.”  
“I hated you, too.”  
The softest of smiles appears on Lacie’s lips, asking multiple questions at once. Jack knows the answer to all of them, grabs the pair of scissors on the table and looks at them.  
“I’m sorry Alice met her end this way. I truly am. I can’t make this up. Not ever, not to anyone. I can’t make up what I’ve done to Oz. I can’t make up what I’ve done to Gilbert and to your brother or anyone else, really. I’m sorry, but there’s nothing I can do.”  
The pair of scissors is red, just the blades are silver. Nowadays, even scissors look different. Pocket watches, too. Lacie stands up, walks over to him, and tentatively pries them from his hand. As if to symbolize how she didn’t want him to be even more hurt than he already had been in the past.  
“Jack.”  
“Yes?”  
“Will you try to improve, as a person? Will you continue to regret what you’ve done? Will you continue to show me those tears of yours?”  
She takes the scissors into her fingers properly, grabs the blonde braid with her other hand. Jack takes a deep breath.  
“Are you ready to change?”  
He exhales, grips the table, another few tears drop onto the dark wood. His eyes hurt, he’s not used to this all.  
“Yes.”  
She starts cutting the braid.  
*  
Maybe they didn’t forgive each other. But now that they’re sitting below a sky full of stars again, Lacie telling him that this is the world she loves because it resembles the abyss, they both think that maybe, they can make the best out of this. That not everything in the past will or can be forgiven, but that they can still try to change. Once more, there are tears in his eyes when he takes her hand, crosses the border he’s set for himself for the very first time. Lacie takes it with a smile, brushes her hand through his short hair one time. Jack thinks that maybe, he should apologize once again, but everything that leaves his lips is a quiet word of gratitude.  
Maybe they didn’t forgive each other, but they can move on together.
